alot of historical events at this spot, torn down to make way for an county office building

Wow... It was called Parker Center, not Parker Station. I wish it could have been explored & documented better, but I know what it's like to perform a self-guided, self-invited tour (i.e. trespassing), so I understand the rush.

25+ years ago, I remember being in that auditorium, watching as prisoners were being processed there after a big LAPD/DEA drug sweep in MacArthur Park. It was a scene right out of the movies...

Isn't that the place where they had a 'bunker'-like sub-basement housing their emergency operations center & dispatch?

what were you doing there? were you a reporter?

explored the basement but ran out of battery, to risky to be down there has cameras an leads to active buildings on the block

pretty much gutted nothing but the auditorium and cells
